Mr. Speaker, it has been one year since the Liberal government launched the Canada dental care plan. The results are nothing short of remarkable. In just 12 months, three million Canadians have been approved for coverage, and over 1.2 million people have access to affordable dental care in all our communities across Canada. That is 1.2 million brighter smiles, 1.2 million healthier families and 1.2 million reasons to celebrate.
Talking about reasons to celebrate, tomorrow we are cutting GST on all essential goods. We are talking about food, children's clothes and toys, books, beer and wine. That's cutting sales tax for two months to help Canadians.
We are just getting started. Our government will continue to stand by Canadians, breaking down barriers and ensuring access to the help they need. Let us keep the momentum going and help Canada shine brighter, one smile at a time.
